I joked with Robert that lately, we've been getting 2 toy catalogs a day. Well, I may have been exaggerating, but it does seem like the toy catalogs have been multiplying in the mailbox. I basically hand the catalogs right to the kids who literally spend hours poring over them, announcing every 20 seconds, "I want this for Christmas," and then, "No, I mean I want this for Christmas."
Today when I got the mail we had three toy catalogs: Target, eToys (are they still in business?) and Discovery Channel Store. The Discovery Channel Store catalog has an interesting looking hydrogen fuel rocket for only $40. When Ethan gets home and starts looking at this catalog though, I bet the first thing he'll ask for is the DVD collection of Mythbusters Season 4.
I'll let the kids tear the catalogs apart for a few days then it's off to the recycling bin they go!
**UPDATE**
I called it! After a minute or so of flipping through the Discovery Channel Store catalog Ethan exclaimed, "Wow! Mythbusters Season 4 DVD Collection! Can we get that?"

I showed Emily a new toy catalog and said, "Circle what you would like for Christmas." After a while she said she was ready to show me what she wanted. The front page alone had everything circled including an iPod Nano (the blue one).
Afton - I love reading your blog, especially the stories of your boys. It sounds like there is never a dull moment in your house.
